What kind of drill bit should I use to drill into a wall stud?

• <div><p>Choose a drill bit that is the size of the screws of the anchors you will use. You aren’t drilling through metal or concrete—hopefully—so any standard twist, wooden or all-purpose drill bit will work fine. It’s also important to have a screwdriver capable of drilling through the drywall and into the stud. The good news is most available drills, even the older ones, can do this with no issue.</p></div>

Do textured walls add value?

• <div><p>Textured walls can increase the value of your home<i> </i>if the style is modern and seen as a desirable feature and not something a prospective buyer would need to remedy. A good example of this is popcorn texture <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-tell-drywall-vs-plaster.htm">versus Venetian plaster</a>. The plaster wall would add value to your home, whereas the popcorn texture may be something a new buyer would want to remove. </p></div>

Q: Why should drywall be staggered?

• <div><p>You should stagger drywall sheets to help prevent cracking. The joints between drywall sheets are the weak spots, so if you install drywall with seams aligned, you&rsquo;ll create weak lines that run across the length of the wall and extend from floor to ceiling. But when you stagger drywall, the solid sections of panels will support the joints. This can prevent seams from cracking or separating due to fluctuating temperature and humidity, vibrations from movement inside the home, and gravity. </p></div>

Q: How do I find a good plaster repair company?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re looking for a reliable plaster repair company, you should start by researching local companies in your area and reviewing their status with the Better Business Bureau. Next, you can contact the potential companies to ask about experience levels, get a list of references, and ask for examples of past work. If you have a textured wall, consider asking if they have examples or references for that particular texture. This method should help you narrow your search even further. You may also want to ask each company if they provide a warranty for their work.</p></div>

Q: What if I miscut the outlet hole in the drywall?

• <div><p>Depending on the place where the cutting error occurred, you may be able to fix it. Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/patch-drywall-hole-6-simple-steps.htm">how to patch a hole in drywall</a> is challenging, but if you can tape and mud drywall, you can do it. Having said that, patching is time consuming. Early in the installation process, you may find that it&rsquo;s easier and far less time consuming to just start over with a new sheet of drywall, cutting a new hole in the right spot. You may be able to use part of the incorrectly cut piece elsewhere, so it&rsquo;s not completely wasted.</p></div>
